RALEIGH , North Carolina -LRB- CNN -RRB- -- A woman whose husband and two sons are accused of plotting `` violent jihad '' overseas said federal authorities tricked her into leaving her home so they could search it .

Sabrina Boyd says terrorism allegations against her husband , Daniel , and two sons are false .

Sabrina Boyd said Tuesday that she rushed out to a hospital earlier this week after being told her loved ones had been in a serious car accident .

The FBI declined to comment on the allegation .

Boyd 's claims came the day before an eighth suspect in this North Carolina group of alleged terrorism supporters was identified as Jude Kenan Mohammad , a knowledgeable source told CNN Wednesday .

Authorities had said Tuesday that they were seeking an eighth suspect in the case , although they would not identify the person , who is described as a U.S. citizen and North Carolina resident in an indictment .

Seven men already arrested in the case face charges of supporting terrorism and conspiracy to commit murder abroad . They are scheduled to appear in court on Tuesday .

Officials identified three of the men as U.S. native Daniel Patrick Boyd , 39 , -- who according to the indictment had fought against the Soviets in Afghanistan -- and Boyd 's sons , Dylan Boyd , 22 , also known as `` Mohammed , '' and Zakariya Boyd , 20 .

The four others are : Mohammad Omar Aly Hassan , also a U.S.-born citizen ; Hysen Sherifi , identified as a native of Kosovo who is a legal permanent resident of the United States ; and Hiyad Yaghi and Anes Subasic , both naturalized U.S. citizens .

Sabrina Boyd , the wife of Daniel Patrick Boyd and the mother of the two younger Boyds , said the allegations against her family are false .

`` I know that my husband and my sons are free of guilt , '' she told CNN Tuesday . `` I 'm hopeful that the truth will come to light . '' Watch as Sabrina Boyd says she 's proud of her husband and sons ''

She said she had not spoken to her husband or to her son Dylan , but had spoken to Zakariya .

`` He seemed OK , '' she said . `` He said , ` They 're innocent , the truth will come out . ' ''

Learning about the arrest of her husband and sons had been particularly distressing because of the manner in which she found out , she said .

She said federal authorities sent a person the family knew to her door this week to tell her that her husband and three sons had been sideswiped by a tractor-trailer .

The person was wearing a shirt that appeared to be covered in blood , she said , and told her `` it was grave and they were bleeding , and I needed to be rushed immediately to Duke Hospital , '' she said .

For Sabrina Boyd , the news was all too familiar : In 2007 , her 16-year-old son , Luqman , was killed in a car crash .

`` I had already been through this two years prior , '' she said .

She said authorities took her , her daughter and pregnant daughter-in-law to the hospital , where she learned that her husband and sons had not been in a car accident .

`` When we got to the hospital they brought us around back , separated us , handcuffed us , including my 8-month pregnant daughter -LSB- - in-law -RSB- , and were very rude and then told us , ` They 're not dying , they 're detained . And you better cooperate with us . ' ''

She added , `` They used the death of my son to trick me into getting out of my own house so they could just serve a warrant with nobody there . ''

All eight suspects are accused of plotting `` violent jihad '' overseas , according to the indictment , and are charged with conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists and conspiracy to murder , kidnap , maim and injure people .

The indictment makes no reference to a direct threat to individuals or property in the United States , but said the men had practiced military tactics in a North Carolina county that borders Virginia .

The court document also mentions overseas trips taken by several of the men . According to the indictment , Daniel Boyd and his sons left the United States for Israel in June 2007 to `` engage in violent jihad , but ultimately returned to the United States after failing in their efforts . ''

It said Yaghi and Hassan also traveled to Israel in June 2007 , and that Daniel Boyd lied to Customs and Border Protection agents at the Atlanta , Georgia , and Raleigh airports about intending to meet the two men in the Jewish state .

The indictment also said Daniel Boyd traveled to Gaza in March 2006 `` to introduce his son to individuals who also believed that violent jihad was a personal obligation on the part of every good Muslim . ''

Sabrina Boyd said her husband flew to Israel in 2007 with Zakariya after Luqman 's death . Both sons were to have gone , she said .

`` They 'd always wanted to go to the Holy Land , '' she said .

However , she said , Zakariya and Daniel Boyd were detained by Israeli authorities and were deported to France . She offered no details .

About a year earlier , Daniel Boyd had taken the couple 's youngest son , Noah , to Jerusalem to visit holy sites , she said , saying the trips were not unusual for Muslims , Christians or Jews .

The indictment alleges that Daniel Boyd traveled to Pakistan and Afghanistan during 1989 to 1992 , and learned military-style training in terrorist camps there . He also fought the Soviets in Afghanistan , the indictment says .

According to The Washington Post , Daniel Boyd and his brother , Charles , had been sentenced in 1991 in Pakistan to have their right hands and left feet cut off after being convicted of bank robbery .

The newspaper reported in October 1991 that the brothers and their families had moved to Peshawar to work with a Muslim relief agency .

The country 's Supreme Court overturned their convictions , the newspaper reported .

CNN 's David Mattingly , Jeanne Meserve and Mike Ahlers contributed to this report .
